What NEW things have you done since losing weight?

  • I'm so interested to see what new roads everyone has taken since feeling good about themselves!

    I wore heels tonight! I'm 5'9 and thank God that I have a super tall husband. It was SO FUN, I must do it again!!

    tomorrow I'm going blonde for the first time ever

    spill the beans, what have you done lately that you've always wanted to do??
  • Bought new bra's (actual ones, not sports bras) and new underwear
  • Good Luck going Blonde Lacey!!! Sounds exciting!!
  • While I haven't lost a substantial amount of weight yet - I plan on going warm blonde, or fire engine red! getting a pedicure hopefully.

    Kids are fussing, gotta go.

  • This may be a little more info than you wanted to know, but.... Because I was so overweight before, I could never actually stay sitting on the toilet to wipe. That was interesting when I had an IV in my right arm!
    Now, I've lost so many inches in my belly and thigh area that I can wipe sitting down!

    I can drive my mom's car without having to put the seat back and the steering wheel up.

    I can walk from my office to my car without getting winded (that is, of course, when my car is working )

    I don't exceed the max weight limit on my camp chairs, but it's too cold and frozen to use them anyway. next step is losing more by next summer so that I can buy the regular size ones instead of the deluxe size ones.

    I put the arms back on my office chair at work and i don't come home bruised at the end of the night.

    I ran yesterday without dying! It wasn't super far because I had the wrong shoes on (I wasn't running to run, I was running back to my apartment after puching my car to the service co.), but I was only panting a little and it went away quick, too.

    This is a strange one... The way that Ross on Friends told everyone "f*** you" was by clapping his forearms together in front of his chest... I could never do it because my arms were too fat and my chest was too big... I just realized on Sunday at my grandma's that I can do it now! Also, I have a tattoo on my inner right forearm and the tattoo artist wanted me to put my forearms together in front of me so he could center it, but I couldn't get my forearms together, but now I can do that too!

    I can say that I'm not in the 300's anymore!

    I can fit into Old Navy's plus-size and not just Fashion Bug or Avenue's extended sizes.

    No offense to my sister, but I can finally say.."Sorry, but it's to big on me...do you want it?" She's ok with it now, but it bugged her in the beginning.

    YAY!

  • I'll actually...OCCASIONALLY...wear something sleeveless!
  • You're braver than me tipsy!!
  • There is a very fine line between "brave" and "stupid". *giggles*
  • I have that "gramma" arm!! Flaps just like Gramma's used to! In the summer, I wear sleevless, but I try really hard to remember to NOT flap my arms
